You know the great thing about impending doom? I write more! This one is from a while back, but sadly, still 🎯.

In the next four years, expect action items and updates with a healthy dose of thoughts and writing…that’s how we all began here together isn’t it? I guess I will revel in how everything comes full circle. 🫠

And for those of you that came in person last Sunday, I promise an email is coming your way. The need to rest hit me and I’ve been attempting to honor it before it pulls me under. 🩵🫶🏻

Peace and blessings, y’all…tomorrow I’m baki

Peace and blessings, y’all…tomorrow I’m baking a pumpkin pie and putting up a tree.

Sunday was our first (of many to come!) in-person events with over 50 attendees…double the amount we estimated!! Being in-person with everyone was medicine for the soul. Perks of being able to control the weather 😉? You get perfect days like Sunday.

🙏🏻 Thank you to @watchingthefundscobb @jmtheadvocate @solomonadesanya4ga @stacyefrat and so many more for speaking! So grateful that so many walked away with actionable and sustainable ways to get involved with school boards, local orgs, Cobb Dems, @momsdemand and more.

🩵🫶🏻Thank you to EVERYONE who showed up!

🍑So very grateful for the Cobb Bonfire where Stacy and I began cooking this up and then 2 days later hopped on a zoom call with Ana…and Community for Change began...

🧺This was our first picnic with a purpose, and it will not be our last.

🗓️ Missed this one? We will be having one a quarter so stay tuned for the next date! Will be sending a recap email soon! Stay tuned!

How will we get through the next four years? Together. 🩵🫶🏻 In-person community building will be our lifeline (and always has been). Not sure where to start or how to do (gestures wildly) all of this? We can help! We all start somewhere!

With hope,

👯‍♀️ The girls decided that they were going to dress in theme…they don’t miss an opportunity to glam up and dress the part…this was all their doing! Welcome to 2 girl life 🤣

💚It was the medicine for the soul we all needed.

✨I was lucky enough to see this on Broadway with my besties in college when we briefly lived in NYC…and this version DID NOT disappoint (except Daffin was upset that part 2 isn’t ready yet…)

💖 I bawled…obviously. This musical has always hit me in the gut, and is one of my fave car singing soundtracks, but woof…hit differently in current times. 😭

Have yall seen it yet?!

Guys…I know this isn’t the headliner today…but per usual and as we found the last time around, they distract and exhaust to red-herring you into disengagement, fatigue, and burnout. Tune out the excess noise until you need it.

✨Last year, in the search for all of the answers to all of the conflicts that could arise at holiday dinners, I found an article in @time that was an incredibly helpful framework for any conversation. However, since last year the landscape has continued to divide and harden…so I added some notes at the end. However, I hope those of you that need this framework find it helpful for holidays or year round!

For those that support or inadvertently support this rhetoric in any way…a new era of hatred and misogyny and racism has been ushered in. As the mother of two girls, this is not the end of the fight. This is just the beginning. You thought I was political before? Get ready for the next 4 years.
